Axiomatic MCP Servers
MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers that provide AI assistants with access to the Axiomatic_AI Platform - a suite of advanced tools for scientific computing, document processing, and photonic circuit design.
๐ Quickstart
1. Check system requirements
- Python
- Install here
- uv
- Install here
- Recommended not to install in conda (see Troubleshooting)
- install extra packages (optional)
- If you wish to use the AxPhotonicsPreview, you will need to install extra dependencies before continuing. After installing uv, run
uv tool install "axiomatic-mcp[pic]".
- If you wish to use the AxPhotonicsPreview, you will need to install extra dependencies before continuing. After installing uv, run
2. Install your favourite client
3. Get an API key
You will receive an API key by email shortly after filling the form. Check your spam folder if it doesn't arrive.
4. Install Axiomatic Operators (all except AxPhotonicsPreview)
โก Claude Code
claude mcp add axiomatic-mcp --env AXIOMATIC_API_KEY=your-api-key-here -- uvx --from axiomatic-mcp all
๐ค Claude Desktop
- Open Claude Desktop settings โ Developer โ Edit MCP config
- Add this configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"axiomatic-mcp": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["--from", "axiomatic-mcp", "all"],
"env": {
"AXIOMATIC_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
}
}
- Restart Claude Desktop
๐ฎ Gemini CLI
Follow the MCP install guide and use the standard configuration above. See the official instructions here: Gemini CLI MCP Server Guide
{
"axiomatic-mcp": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["--from", "axiomatic-mcp", "all"],
"env": {
"AXIOMATIC_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
}
๐ฌ๏ธ Windsurf
Follow the Windsurf MCP documentation. Use the standard configuration above.
{
"axiomatic-mcp": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["--from", "axiomatic-mcp", "all"],
"env": {
"AXIOMATIC_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
}
๐งช LM Studio
Click the button to install:
Note: After installing via the button, open LM Studio MCP settings and add:
"env": { "AXIOMATIC_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here" }
๐ป Codex
Create or edit the configuration file ~/.codex/config.toml and add:
[mcp_servers.axiomatic-mcp]
command = "uvx"
args = ["--from", "axiomatic-mcp", "all"]
env = { AXIOMATIC_API_KEY = "your-api-key-here" }
For more information, see the Codex MCP documentation
๐ Other MCP Clients
Use this server configuration:
{
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["--from", "axiomatic-mcp", "all"],
"env": {
"AXIOMATIC_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
Note: This installs all tools except for AxPhotonicsPreview under one server. If you experience other issues, try individual servers instead.

Troubleshooting
Cannot install in Conda environment
It's not recommended to install axiomatic operators inside a conda environment. uv handles seperate python environments so it is safe to run "globally" without affecting your existing Python environments
Server not appearing in Cursor
- Restart Cursor after updating MCP settings
- Check the Output panel (View โ Output โ MCP) for errors
- Verify the command path is correct
The "Add to cursor" button does not work
We have seen reports of the cursor window not opening correctly. If this happens you may manually add to cursor by:
- Open cursor
- Go to "Settings" > "Cursor Settings" > "MCP & Integration"
- Click "New MCP Server"
- Add the following configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"axiomatic-mcp": {
"command": "uvx --from axiomatic-mcp all",
"env": {
"AXIOMATIC_API_KEY": "YOUR API KEY"
},
"args": []
}
}
}
Multiple servers overwhelming the LLM
Install only the domain servers you need. Each server runs independently, so you can add/remove them as needed.
API connection errors
- Verify your API key is set correctly
- Check internet connection
Tools not appearing
If you experience any issues such as tools not appearing, it may be that you are using an old version and need to clear uv's cache to update it.
uv cache clean
Then restart your MCP client (e.g. restart Cursor).
This clears the uv cache and forces fresh downloads of packages on the next run.
Individual servers
You may find more information about each server and how to install them individually in their own READMEs.
